JsonObject.Parse(String) Method

Definition

Parses the specified JSON string that represents a JsonObject into a JSON value.

Note

This will throw an exception if the provided JSON string is not valid. Use of JsonObject.TryParse is a recommended alternative. A TryParse call will return a boolean value to indicate success or failure and, if successful, the resultant JsonObject.

C#
public static JsonObject Parse(string input);

Parameters

input
String

The specified JSON string.

Returns

Remarks

This method may only be called when the ValueType is Null. If the value contained in the specified JSON string is a String, a Number or a Boolean, the ValueType will be updated and the actual value can then be accessed through the GetString, GetNumber or GetBoolean methods. If Parse fails due to an invalid JSON string or resource allocation errors, the ValueType will not be changed.

When implemented on the subclass JsonObject, this method requires the specified input string to be a valid JSON object value. When implemented on the subclass JsonArray, this method requires the specified input string to be a valid JSON array value. The original object state will be overwritten when JsonObject.Parse or JsonArray.Parse succeeds. If Parse fails, the object state remains intact.
